Suppose you had ~100 mags between the two guns and never did a good job sorting them out
I did a quick comparison between a couple and I really didnt see a difference... same mag follower, same curvature, same length, etc... anything that I am missing that obviously seperates the two? |

The curve of a '47 will be sharper than the straighter '74 mag.

And if you can't see difference in the curve you should see the slots cut into the top of
the AK74 mags for the stripper clip spoon to slide into. |

Can I assume that a 47 mag will / will not fit into a -74 receiver as far as hands on verification? |

I try to only buy poly mags for the 74 and steel mags for the 47. Have a couple of steel Tantal mags that look too similar to the 47 mags.
